Work for Hire Agreement (Composer / Musician)
This kit includes information and tools that will assist you in drafting a “work for hire” agreement for the production of a musical composition.
In most cases, the creator of a work is the sole and exclusive owner of the copyright in that work. The copyright becomes the property of the creator immediately and automatically as soon as the work in question is set in a fixed form (i.e., a song is fixed when it is recorded, when it is written as sheet music, etc.).
However, in certain situations, the person or entity that hires the creator to create the work will be the owner of the copyright in that work. Such a work is called a “work for hire.” The Copyright Act of 1976 sets forth certain specific rules and guidelines establishing when a work may be considered to be a work for hire.
Included in this kit is a sample form for drafting a Composer’s Work for Hire Agreement, hiring an independent contractor to create a musical composition as a work for hire.
For use in all states.
Among others, this form includes the following provisions:
• Work For Hire Defined
• Assignment
• Payment
• Delivery
• Composer’s Representations and Warranties
• Governing Law
